I fancy growing these this summer, and wondered if anyone else has and if so, does one bulb produce one stem or a few stems - sorry if that sounds mad, but I don't like skinny planting, but by the same token I don't want to buy loads and then be over-run by them! Yjanks as ever, Jude.

Depends on the size of the tuber as to how many spikes, down south i always left them in the ground and year after year they  came back and flowered in summer...Here Lincolnshire you would have to start them off indoors or a greenhouse that was heated in March to get the same results ive found .

Lovely foliage dwarf or normal 3to 4 foot plants so do check what height they will be , thier wel worth the effort, another to try are Ginger lillies same applies but they have wonderful perfume  .
